openmrs-module-orderexpansion

Overview

The Order Expansion module enhances the order management capabilities of KenyaEMR, an implementation of OpenMRS. It introduces support for additional order types, including:

1. Procedure Orders
2. Radiology Orders (e.g., imaging, scans)
3. Medical Supply Orders (e.g., consumables, laboratory reagents)

This expansion allows for more comprehensive and specialized order management within the KenyaEMR system.

Features

• Seamless integration with existing KenyaEMR order management
• Support for procedure, radiology, and medical supply order types

Prerequisites

• Java 1.8 or higher
• Maven 3.x or higher
• OpenMRS Platform 2.x (specific version compatibility to be verified)
